Overview
Vipassana technique is one of the meditation techniques, which brings integration of mind and body. Followers of Buddha are following this technique for many years. This is the technique which brings clarity of mind and assists in reaching to the truth.
Introduction to Vipassana Meditation Technique
Vipassana is the technique which roots back to 2500 thousand years when Buddha invented this technique. This is the technique, which gives the power to see things clearly. The other important thing is that, this technique brings a high level of self insight, which is not possible in other techniques.
Learning Vipassana Meditation
There are different methods of carrying Vipassana Meditation technique. I will discuss the one that will bring the highest level of insight after experiencing meditation.
One of the important techniques in Vipassana is impermanence. This technique shows that everything in this world is impermanent, means that things come and go away. Through this practice, an individual learns to see the things without emotional attachment, and in an objective manner.
The first thing is that, you have to sit calmly without any support to the back. Try to concentrate on anything happening at that moment. The root of the technique is that, you don’t have to attach to the things and ideas during such kind of meditation session. You just have to observe things as they passing by your mind. The first step is to concentrate on your breathing. You don’t need to control or manage your breathing. Just need to feel the rhythm of your breathing as it is happening.
The second step to concentrate on your feelings and sensation. Again, you don’t have to describe and label your feelings and sensations. You have to just feel them and accept them as they are. The third important step is to concentrate on your own thoughts.
You don’t have to stick to those thoughts. Just observe them objectively, and don’t try to attach your emotions with those feelings. This is the root of this technique that, you don’t have to get involved in anything. You have to experience things while they are approaching and leaving.
After going through all these experiences, you have to conclude your meditation session. You will complete it by taking break after this fascinating session, and you will prepare your mind to get back to your routine work. Attaching our own meaning with everything in the world is human tendency.
Through this tendency, we try to understand the meanings of different things in our surrounding. That is why; every person perceives things according to his own experiences and emotions.
The best thing about this technique is that it builds a tendency to observe things without attaching personal emotions and meanings. In this way, a person practicing Vipassana
Meditation, becomes able to see things objectively that is, they he becomes able to see the truth hidden in different things.
Benefits of Vipassana Meditation
There are several benefits of practicing Vipassana Meditation on daily basis. I will discuss some of them here:
Brings Objectivity.
The most important thing about Vipassana Meditation is that, it helps an individual to reach to the hidden truth of different things. We have seen that, this meditation practice enables an individual to see things objectively, without attaching his own emotions. In this way, a person learns to experience things as they are actually, without molding their meanings through his own thoughts and emotions.
Makes Life Enjoyable.
In your normal routine, you will try to take break and go for outing to enjoy your life, but you have to return to the same hectic routine after that enjoyment, in any case. So, these mentioned ways of getting enjoyment are temporary. If you develop a habit to practice Vipassana meditation daily, it will be viable for you to take pleasure in your life and get relief from daily pressure.
Helps in Developing a Sound Mind.
Vipassana meditation helps an individual in remaining calm and peaceful. There are certain thoughts that disturb our emotions and produce odd reactions in ourselves. Once, your mind becomes sound and stable through practicing meditation, such feelings lose their potential to disturb your mind and emotions.
Brings Inner Creativity Out.
This is another important effect of practicing Vipassana meditation that it extracts out your hidden talents and potentials. During meditation, you can get a chance to meet your inner self and realize you talents.
Most of us have many talents, but in our busy lives, we remain not capable to use these talents. Meeting with ourselves in silence, makes us to realize and finally utilize those talents and abilities.
This is the technique invented by Buddha, which brings joy and happiness in life without spending even a single penny. This is one of the best techniques to realize the truth about yourself, your thoughts, your sensations and your emotions. You will be better able to understand the world after understanding yourself. You cannot understand anyone’s emotion until, you understand your own.
